Ayers Cherry Pectoral is highly
concentrated and powerful medicine.
1t is an anodyne expectorant, and, il
promptly taken, in cases Of Coughs,
Throat or Lung troubles, soothes and
heals the irritated tissues, and quickly
allays all tendency to Consumption.
Six years ago, I contracted a severe
Cold, which settled on my Lungs, and
soon developed all the alarming symp-
toms OF Consumption. I had Cough,
Night Sweats, Bleeding Lungs, Pain in
my Chest and Sides, and was so COM
pletely prostrated, as to be confined to
my bed most Of the time. After trying
various prescriptions, without benefit,
my physician finally determined to give
me Ayers Cherry Pectoral. I took it,
and the effect was magical. I seemed
to rally from the first dose of this med
icine, and, after using only three bottles,
am now as well and sound as ever
Rodney johnson, Springfield, Ill.

in my family, for Colds and Coughs,
with infallible success, and should not
dare to be without this medicine through

II hear talk about people like Laura
Bridgman developing a sixth sense, or
something Of the sort; pray what is your
opinion as TO that"
"That sixth sense talk is all nonsense;
of course it is. l work with blind people
all the time and never stop wondering at
the way they manage to do things, but of
course l see and know in detail how they
use the senses left them in a thousand
places where we use our eyes. But /
must say that some of the work done by
Laura's fingers seems marvellous. I think
the most wonderful thing is the way she
will judge of the intelligence of q stranger
by touching his hand. OF course she can
tell less in this way than another person
OF her intelligence could by looking at the
face, but she will tell n good deal. She
will recognize an idiot in an instant, and
with certainty. She despises persons of
inferior intellect, as you may know, and
will have nothing to do with them. There
is a school for idiots near here, and one
day the experiment was tried Of taking
her to drive q roundabout way-she is
very fond Of riding-to the place and put
ting the hand of one OF the inmates in
hers. But it was of no use; Laura threw
the hand away in IN instant, with an ex-
preston of disgust, and said idiot with
her fingers. Cor. Detroit Free. Press.

A Briiiiant Affair n Numcrousiy At
ended

The Grand Army ball, given at Keefe's
hall by the John f. Reynolds post, last
evening, was one of the most brilliant af-
fairs of the season and was attended by
about $50 couples.
The hall was gaily and deliberately dec
Grated with flags. banners. enblems, etc.
A fine picture of Gen. Grant was hung at
the west end of the hall, and at the east
end appeared a fine large portrait of Gov
ernor Thomas Moonlight. Large life
sized portraits of three OF the members of
the Reynolds post, Ex-Governor Warren.
Gen. J. w. Fisher and w. P. Carroll
were also displayed in prominent posi-
tions in other parts of the hall. In ad-
dition to these other pictures, army corps
badges and various designs we're hung in
profusion from one end of the hall TO the
other. Being brilliantly lighted, the hall
resembled q palace, which added much to
the attractiveness of the occasion.
Dancing commenced at. $3.50 D. M. be-
ing preceded by the grand march, which
was led by Gen. j. W. Fisher with Mrs.
j. B. Furnass, and j. X. Jeffrey, senior
vice commander Of the Department of
Colorado, with Miss McMurray, of Pine
Bluffs. Dancing continued until a late
hour this morning. and all who partici-
pated were highly pleased with the af-
fair.
The excellent music for the occasion
was furnished by tho 18th infantry band.

as follows:

Veterinarian Hopkins and DR.. Grimes
yesterday performed a surgical operation
on a valuable colt belonging to Capt.
jerks, which, although not entirely sue
c%essful, was as complete as could be with
out fatal results. The colt has for some
months had a tumor growing upon its
neck and in close adhesion to the wind
pipe. The tumor has of late been in
creasing in size, and it was decided to
have it removed. The attempt was
made yesterday afternoon, but it was
found, after making the necessary Incl.
sions and laying bare the tumor, that it
so adhered to the pain channel of the
throat that to remove it would be followed
at once by fatal results. and the surgical
project had. therefore, to be abandoned.
1t is claimed, however, that the tumor
may not cause the death of the animal
for a long time yet and perhaps not at all.

A new style of entertainment has found
a great deal Of favor in Chicago, and / see
no reason why it should not become
equally popular here. 1t is called ''pro-
gressive lunch" and is conducted on the
principle of progressive eucher. A num-
Der of small tables are provided, at which
four are seated. At the end of each course
lots are drawn, and two go from one table
to the next, thus bringing about a con-
tinual change Of partners, and allowing
each person to see something of every one
present. This seems to me to be very
convenient, as by the ordinary arrange
ment one can talk with only three or four
people. Tit Chicago people are very
quick to adopt any new ideas, and this
has become quite the rage, but the move
men recently set on foot in that city to
apply the principle to matrimony can
hardly meet with unqualified approval,
however convenient it might prove in in
dividual instances.-Globe Democrat.

LONELINESS OF THE CAR.


Not a Man In the World More peep,y
% to be Pltied-Tho NihIlIsts.
There is not a man in the world more
deeply to be pitied than the present
emperor OF Russia. The loneliness of
kings, a loneliness naturally resulting
from their place, which hardly admits OF
friendship, and does not admit of equality.
is always terrible, and is frequently felt
by themselves so severely that they break
through all restraints of prudence and
moral law in order to be rid of 1t. Rather
than not have friends, people before whom
they can disrobe their minds and sit In
mental slippers, they will give all power
to favorites, or to women who could be
bought without any UGH sacrifices of
their states or their subjects. The loneli-
ness OF n car as absolute as q Caesar and
as swiftly obeyed, so far above his sub
jects that Count Tolstoi, in the admirable
series of historic sketches which he calls
War and Peace" and issues as u novel,
describes mobiles as fainting with agitation
at the sight OF him, must be almost shock
ing. He is SO utterly master, he can SO
completely n instantly make and un-
make, the hostile exertion Of his will, If
he exerted it would be SO deadly in its
force that he can have no true equal, or
friend, or easy companion.
He may, like Alexander III, try TO be
BON camderae, or, like many czars sur
round himself with mistresses; but the
distance remains always too great for true
friendship, or for any perfect alienation
from society Of the troubles of the mind,
any tightening of that burden of empire
which, when his word is always final, SO
presses on the conscience even of evil
kings. 1t is scarcely possible 10 be wholly
disinterested with a car If only for the
terrible powers his mere friendship places
in your hands, scarcely possible, either
for the car not to perceive or to suspect
in every sentence uttered some concealed
intent. In any nature such a position
must beget habitual suspicion; and when
the gar is by nature or has become
through cruel experience, gloomy, re-
served and unsocial, the suspiciousness
must rise into a mastering passion.
Add that the car has been driven by
the Nihilists into a life of almost utter Sc
c~lusion; that he has reason to fear for his
life at every hour in the day and from the
most unlikely quarters; that he is de-
prived Of intimates by his virtues as well
as by the dread he inspires, and that he
has no children old enough to share his
thoughts, and we may imagine to what
heights suspiciousness may rise in him
and how near to the sources of fury every
thought may lie.-The Spectator.

Many interesting war reminiscence are
rehearsed by visitors to the panorama of
the battle of Bull Run in this city. Two
veterans were discussing war matters
there this morning, when one said: ~
was present when Gen. Grant bid Presi-
dent Lincoln good-by at Fairfax Court
House, Va, when he started on to Rich
mond with the Army Of the Potomac.
Mr.. Lincoln said: General, l don't want
to hear Of your retreating toward Wash
ington.' There was a dangerous CLINT in
Grants eye as he turned and replied: IF
/ do, n small boat will carry my army
across the Potomac 1t would ave done
any man good" said the veteran, "to
have seen the expression OF gratitude and
confidence, mixed with pride, shining out
in old Abe's face when Gen. Grant said
that. Washington Cor. New York Sun

That a communicating and foreign element

the cause of rheumatism. This settles
upon the sensitive sub .cutaneouo covering

the general impression seems to be that
the alarm which sounded at that time

of one only. Mrs. jerks ran up
town and gave the alarm. Policeman
Goddard and about twenty others ran
